Municipalities across Canada and the U.S. can save $4-6 million per kilometre by installing a PurePave permeable road shoulder — eliminating the need to prematurely replace at-capacity storm sewer systems. Includes technical performance data, cost comparisons, and a breakdown of why porous asphalt and pervious concrete fall short in cold climates.

What Is a Sponge City? A sponge city is an innovative urban planning concept designed to manage water sustainably by mimicking natural hydrological processes. Unlike traditional urban areas, which use impermeable surfaces and extensive drainage systems, sponge cities utilize green infrastructure and permeable surfaces to absorb, store, and gradually release rainwater. This approach reduces the risk of flooding, enhances groundwater recharge, and improves water quality. By inc

In the face of escalating climate challenges, cities around the globe are pioneering innovative strategies to turn the tide against the detrimental effects of urbanization. At the forefront of this transformation is the embrace of green infrastructure, specifically through the implementation of permeable surfaces like PurePave. This revolutionary approach is not only extending the lifespan of stormwater systems but is also playing a pivotal role in pollution prevention, floo
